Summary:
Abstract sculpture of a Victorian lady playing a parlor harp. She leans into the instrument, her hands held against the strings. The figure is outlined in steel rods. The strings of the harp are found curtain rods. The base of the harp is a round metal wheel and the softening pedal is an old gear gauge held horizontally in place by a steel spring.
